"Kingdoms wobble, crowns topple and knives flash on the magical Discworld as the statutory three witches meddle in royal politics.

And they are joined by things you haven't heard of yet, like a stage-struck thunderstorm and the first recorded instance of the in-flight refuelling of a broomstick, Through it all the wyrd sisters ("This cauldron's got all yuk in it!") battle against frightful odds to put the rightful king on the throune. At least, that's what they think..."--Container.
